1. INTRODUCTION

The Carbon Footprint Report 2018 is the fifth report that Prishtina International Airport “Adem Jashari” has established and it estimates Prishtina International Airport’s 2018 Greenhouse Gas emissions inventory. Precisely this report provides the Carbon Footprint data of LKIA based on the emissions emitted in 2014. In addition from previous report, this report includes additional information of emissions, calculations, activities, green initiatives taken regarding Scope 3 of Greenhouse Gas emissions and the involvement and engagement of stakeholders as a requirement of Level 3 (Optimization) from Airport Carbon Accreditation, as well as the achievements and benefits because of them. The methodologies used are all in accordance with GHG emission programs we follow and work with. By accurately measuring the GHG emissions associated to our operations, we continue to develop and improve our carbon management strategy and identify new opportunities for carbon reduction. Thus demonstrating commitment and effort for a healthier environment and a greener airport.

1.1 Reporting period covered

The reporting period covers 1 January 2018 to 31 December 2018 with all assessments made based on the 2014 data.

2. ORGANIZATIONAL AND OPERATIONAL BOUNDARIES

2.1 Organizational Boundaries

Prishtina International Airport’s operational structure can be understood by dividing operations into airside operations and landside operations. The Aerodrome land is 393.68 hectares referred to LKIA Aerodrome Services and Operations Manual (8th edition). Limak International Airport has overall control of both operations expecting ATC tower activities that are controlled by authority of state.

2.1.1 LKIA airside operations

Runways, taxiways, aprons, aircraft remote parking position, aircraft ground power supply, planning and other airside activities and maintenance.

2.1.2 LKIA terminal and landside operations

Operation and the maintenance of terminal building, including car park area, power

distribution center, heating and cooling, water and wastewater treatment plant.

The Carbon Footprint Report 2018 is in accordance with the Airport Carbon Accreditation Scheme (Guidance Document Issue 11) and covers emission sources identified under Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3. All emission sources under airside and landside operations that are in consistency with Scope 1 and 2 are under LKIA responsibility, while Scope 3 emissions are only part of LKIA emissions, that LKIA can guide but not control and are managed by Energy and Carbon Stakeholder Management Plan. This plan details the program and activities taken related to the engagement of stakeholders and making the most effective use of their participation. Stakeholders are part of LKIA’s activities and have a regular contract with our airport. Most of them are located at the terminal area. Their list can be found at Energy and Carbon Stakeholder Engagement Plan. The scheme of LKIA units divided by airside and landside operations is shown below:

Tab. 2. LKIA’s list of activities and facilities – guide and influence Limak Kosovo International Airport pursuits of continual improvement by reviewing its footprint boundary annually and regularly looking for opportunities to expand its scope of reporting.

3. CALCULATION METHODOLOGY AND SCOPE EMISSONS

Limak Kosovo International Airport’s Greenhouse Gas emission footprint is calculated using the guidance of Greenhouse Gas Protocol (http://www.ghgprotocol.org/ ) and all the process is done under the guidance manual: Airport Greenhouse Gas Emissions Management (http://www.aci.aero/Publications/Full-Publications-Listing/Guidance-Manual-Airport-Greenhouse-Gas-Emissions-Management) and Airport Carbon Accreditation Guidance Document Issue 11 (http://www.airportcarbonaccredited.org/). Based on their emission sources, GHG emission calculations are divided into three parts: Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3.

3.1 Scope 1 emissions and calculation method

Direct emissions from sources that Prishtina International Airport owns or controls as; ➢ Stationary Sources

o Heating facilities o Emergency generators o Rescue Firefighting Service exercises

➢ Mobile Sources o Transport (landside and airside operations) for every unit

➢ Process Emissions o Water management/consumption

➢ Other o Leaks from plants/other gases o Wastewater treatment system

Entire calculations covering scope 1 emission sources are measured by Greenhouse Gas Protocol Calculation Tools. Worth restarting is that wastewater treatment system emissions are not calculated because of the minor amount of emissions, while refrigerants (compounds used for refrigeration and air condition) are taken in account just in case of leaks.

Page 10: CARBON FOOTPRINT ANNUAL REPORT 2018 · The Carbon Footprint Report 2018 is the fifth report that Prishtina International Airport “Adem Jashari” has established and it estimates

7

3.2 Scope 2 emissions and calculation method

Greenhouse gas emissions from purchased electricity, where emissions are generated externally but attributed to energy consumption at the airport. The electricity of Kosovo relies on coal-fired power plants (97%). KEDS (Kosovo Energy Distribution Service) is the only licensed distributor and the regulation of activities in energy sector in Kosovo is the responsibility of the Energy Regulatory Office. For this reason, Limak Kosovo International Airport purchased electricity is calculated only in location-based. The purchased electricity is calculated manually because of Kosovo missing as a region at the table. Kosovo electricity emission factor data is taken from The International Energy Agency (http://www.iea.org). All of these tools are checked periodically in order to prevent errors of emission calculations, especially emissions factor of electricity in Kosovo to avoid the possible mistakes. No changes have been observed according to emissions factors for Kosovo therefore LKIA continues to calculate the purchased electricity on a location-based method.

3.3 Scope 3 emissions and calculation method

All other indirect emissions from other sources, not controlled but related to the activities of the airport as:

➢ Flights/LTO Cycle ➢ Employee transport/private cars ➢ Employee transport/bus ➢ Cargo activities/Export Activities ➢ Municipality Waste ➢ Passenger & Visitor Car ➢ Business travel ➢ Re-sold Electricity ➢ Re-sold Water ➢ Construction Activities

Including different emission sources, for scope 3 emissions are used different calculation methods such as GHG Protocol, ICAO Emission Calculator and ACERT Carbon Emission Calculation Tool, etc.

- The ICAO Carbon Emissions Calculator allows us to estimate the emissions attributed to air travel, precisely our business travel emissions. It is simple to use and requires only a limited amount of information the methodology applies the best publicly available industry data to account for various factors such as aircraft types, route specific data, passenger load factors and cargo carried.

- For flights or emissions generated during approach, taxi and ground idle (in), taxi and

ground idle (out), take-off and landing, Prishtina International Airport uses the ACERT Carbon Emission Calculation tool with option of detailed aircraft data based on annual movements.

- Greenhouse Gas Protocol Tools are used for employee transport and service bus based on interviews and checklists that are made with employees for their travel method under Mobile Combustion Tool.

Page 11: CARBON FOOTPRINT ANNUAL REPORT 2018 · The Carbon Footprint Report 2018 is the fifth report that Prishtina International Airport “Adem Jashari” has established and it estimates

8

- Cargo activities emissions are also calculated under GHG Mobile Combustion Tool with the characteristics of Weight Distance (Freight Transport), based on the exported cargo data (tone Kilometer)

- Municipality waste is calculated under GHG Protocol Calculation Tool based on solid fossil as fuel type and used fuel municipality waste (non-biomass fraction).

- Number of passenger cars is calculated under GHG Mobile Stationary Tool, based on

vehicle distance (road transport). According to Ministry of Infrastructure the most used fuel type is diesel, therefore we calculate our emissions based on passenger car – diesel type.

- External users for electricity and water consumption are calculated in the same way as for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. Emissions are netted off Scope 1 and Scope 2 then be included in Scope 3.

Every calculation methodology is regularly checked for any update or change. During 2018 ACERT Carbon Emission Calculation Tool released its newest version 5.1, wherewith we immediately replaced the current one we were using.

As seen from the graphics above where we assessed the emissions produced through 2018 from Prishtina International Airport activities, we notice 26% reduction for relative emissions (kg CO2/passenger) and 2% reduction for absolute carbon emissions based on 2014 with four-year rolling average emission. Prishtina International Airport aims to embed carbon reduction throughout the organization as part of its aim to become a sustainable organization. Managing and measuring ecosystem carbon contributes in limiting environmental impact as well as simultaneously offers great potential benefits, economic and social. This opportunity to contribute to so many important environmental goals will not be missed by Prishtina International Airport

By continual effort and commitment, regular measurements and monitoring we managed to reduce our carbon emissions and complete every requirement of ACA which resulted on getting certified with the Level 3/Optimization. We are determined on getting the Level 3+/Neutrality or the final level of ACA for which we are working hard on completing every task required and more.

6. CARBON MANAGEMENT PLAN 2018 HIGHLIGHTS

Working in accordance with Airport Carbon Accreditation and Greenhouse Gas Protocol Tools, implementing and maintaining mitigation methods within the framework of the Carbon Management Plan, establishing and implementing Energy Management objectives, targets and programs, organizing environmental practices and activities, performing site visits, audits, identifying nonconformities regarding energy saving and efficiency as well as GHG emissions impact we managed to reduce our carbon emissions, reduce electricity consumption, fuel consumption and raise awareness regarding environmental importance. Actions on energy saving are established through Energy Management Program (LKIA-PRG-

EMU-01) that is updated annually. This program supports the LKIA Energy and Carbon

Management Policy and the overall goal by monitoring and reducing energy consumption and

carbon emissions in order to increase efficiency of airport operations.

✓ On July we got recertified with ISO 50001:2011 Energy Management System

✓ On July we also got certified with new version ISO 14001:2015 Environmental Management

System

✓ By completing every require of Airport Carbon Accreditation we achieved to get accredited

with the Level 3 (Optimization)

✓ On March we celebrated the World Energy Efficiency Day by taking energy saving initiatives

such as: turning off two elevators to use stairs instead, reducing office radiators capacities by

50% and by email kindly asked every LKIA employee to use each energy source efficiently

like: limiting the use of printer, proper use of office lightning, water saving, paper recycling,

turning off electronic devices when not in use, etc.

✓ For World Earth Day, World Water Day and the International Day for the Preservation of

Ozone layer, by email we raised awareness among LKIA about their importance and how we

can all contribute towards their protection.

✓ Office paper recycling program is initiated and implemented during 2018 as a part of yearly

environmental objectives.

✓ The replacement of broken lamps with new energy efficient LED lamps is a continuous project.

✓ The replacement of broken computers with new laptops is a continuous project in cooperation

with ICT unit. In 2018, 17 laptops were bought.

✓ On June we celebrated the World Environment Day with an activity that involved collecting

the waste within LKIA area by LKIA’s employees and its stakeholders divided into small

groups. The winning group got marked on the “Tree of the year 2018” planted in honor of that

day.

✓ Started implementing Stakeholder Engagement Plan by providing awareness training for

LKIA’s stakeholders and engaging them into environmental activities.

✓ Provided Energy and Carbon Management Training to Limak ASI 4 students.

✓ Prepared environmental stakeholder survey, including LKIA’s stakeholders placed in terminal.

✓ Changed several manual lights to sensor lights to avoid the energy usage when not needed

✓ Put energy saving and water saving stickers to stakeholder’s offices and at the Parking unit

building.

✓ Energy and Carbon Management performed an internal audit to all LKIA units that are energy

consumers.

✓ Buying new cars using diesel instead of gasoline, which is better for the environmental as they

emit less dioxide carbon, monoxide carbon and hydrocarbons than gasoline does.
